But for the next month I'll be with Cursor Agent.</span><br /> +<br /> +<span>Short prompts are fine in the inline input, but for longer prompts I want a real editor: spellcheck, search/replace, multiple cursors, and all the Helix muscle memory I already have.</span><br /> +<br /> +<span>Cursor Agent has a Vim editing mode, but not Helix. And even in Vim mode I can't use my full editor setup. I want the real thing, not a partial emulation.</span><br /> +<br /> +<a class='textlink' href='https://helix-editor.com'>https://helix-editor.com</a><br /> +<a class='textlink' href='https://www.vim.org'>https://www.vim.org</a><br /> +<a class='textlink' href='https://neovim.io'>https://neovim.io</a><br /> +<br /> +<span>So I built a tiny tmux popup editor. It opens <span class='inlinecode'>$EDITOR</span> (Helix for me), and when I close it, the buffer is sent back into the prompt. It sounds simple, but it feels surprisingly native.</span><br /> +<br /> +<span>This is how it looks like:</span><br /> +<br /> +<a href='./tmux-popup-editor-for-cursor-agent-prompts/demo1.png'><img alt='Popup editor in action' title='Popup editor in action' src='./tmux-popup-editor-for-cursor-agent-prompts/demo1.png' /></a><br /> +<br /> +<h2 style='display: inline' id='what-it-is'>What it is</h2><br /> +<br /> +<span>The idea is straightforward:</span><br /> +<br /> +<ul> +<li>A tmux key binding <span class='inlinecode'>prefix-e</span> opens a popup overlay near the bottom of the screen.</li> +<li>The popup starts <span class='inlinecode'>$EDITOR</span> on a temp file.</li> +<li>When I exit the editor, the script sends the contents back to the original pane with <span class='inlinecode'>tmux send-keys</span>.</li> +</ul><br /> +<span>It also pre-fills the temp file with whatever is already typed after Cursor Agent's <span class='inlinecode'>→</span> prompt, so I can continue where I left off.</span><br /> +<br /> +<h2 style='display: inline' id='how-it-works-overview'>How it works (overview)</h2><br /> +<br /> +<span>This is the tmux binding I use (trimmed to the essentials):</span><br /> +<br /> +<pre> +bind-key e run-shell -b "tmux display-message -p '#{pane_id}' + > /tmp/tmux-edit-target-#{client_pid} \; + tmux popup -E -w 90% -h 35% -x 5% -y 65% -d '#{pane_current_path}' + \"~/scripts/tmux-edit-send /tmp/tmux-edit-target-#{client_pid}\"" +</pre> +<br /> +<span>And this is how it looks like after sending back the text to the Cursor Agent's input:</span><br /> +<br /> +<a href='./tmux-popup-editor-for-cursor-agent-prompts/demo2.png'><img alt='Prefilled prompt text' title='Prefilled prompt text' src='./tmux-popup-editor-for-cursor-agent-prompts/demo2.png' /></a><br /> +<br /> +<span>And here is the full script. It is a bit ugly since it's shell (written with Cursor Agent with GPT-5.2-Codex), and I might (let) rewrite it in Go and release it once I have time.
